Morphing the left atrium geometry: The role of the pulmonary veins on flow patterns and thrombus formation
Sergio RodrÃguez-Aparicio, Conrado Ferrera, MarÃa Eugenia Fuentes-Cañamero +2
Background: Despite the significant advances made in the field of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to simulate the left atrium (LA) in atrial fibrillation (AF) conditions, the co…
Influence of the flow split ratio on the position of the main atrial vortex: implications for stasis on the left atrial appendage
Sergio RodrÃguez-Aparicio, Conrado Ferrera, MarÃa Victoria Millán-Núñez +2
Background: Despite the recent advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques applied to blood flow within the left atrium (LA), the relationship between atrial geometry…
Reduced-order models of wall shear stress patterns in the left atrial appendage from a data-augmented atrial database
Jorge Dueñas-Pamplona, Sergio RodrÃguez-Aparicio, Alejandro Gonzalo +8
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, affecting over 1% of the population. It is usually triggered by irregular electrical impulses…
